Heat Not Burn Technology

What kind of product is IQOS?

IQOS is an alternative for adult smokers who would otherwise continue to smoke and want to enjoy real tobacco taste without many of the inconveniences of cigarettes, such as ash or smoke. It is not for people who have quit smoking or have never smoked.
IQOS is our most advanced smoke-free product that uses sophisticated electronics to heat tobacco instead of burning it to release a flavourful nicotine containing vapour.
IQOS and HEETS tobacco sticks are not for minors. Please refer to Important Information section for details. https://www.iqos.com/products/important

Will IQOS help me quit smoking?

No. IQOS is not a smoking cessation device or intended as a device to quit smoking.
If you are concerned about the health effects of smoking, your best option is to quit tobacco use altogether.

Does IQOS produce smoke?

No, IQOS does not produce smoke because it does not burn tobacco. It generates a tobacco vapour that is what you see when using IQOS.

What is the difference between cigarettes and IQOS?

IQOS is a better alternative to smoking because it heats tobacco instead of burning it. It provides real tobacco taste without fire, ash or cigarette smoke, and less smell.
IQOS generates a nicotine containing tobacco vapour with on average 90% lower levels of harmful chemicals compared to cigarette smoke.
Switching completely to IQOS is likely to present less risk to your health than continuing to smoke. However, IQOS is not risk-free and is addictive. If you are concerned about the health effects of smoking, your best option is to quit tobacco and nicotine use altogether.

Is using IQOS safe/risk free?

No.
IQOS is not risk free. Although the level of harmful chemicals generated by IQOS are reduced by 90% on average, there are still some harmful chemicals. Moreover, HEETS tobacco sticks contain nicotine, which is addictive.
This being said, IQOS is a better choice than smoking because, based on the scientific evidence we have to date, switching completely to IQOS is likely to present less risk to your health compared to continuing to smoke.
If you are concerned about the health effects of smoking, your best option is to quit tobacco and nicotine use altogether.

HEETS™

What is the puffing time of HEETS tobacco stick?

HEETS tobacco sticks are designed for the same duration and number of puffs as cigarettes.

Why are HEETS tobacco sticks shorter than cigarettes?

The HEETS tobacco sticks are designed specifically for the IQOS devices. They have an optimal length, diameter and design for the IQOS Holder.

Why do HEETS tobacco sticks taste different from my usual cigarettes?

The taste of IQOS is different from cigarettes because tobacco is heated rather than burned.
By heating the tobacco, the true taste of the tobacco is released.
HEETS tobacco sticks are made from a specially selected blend of tobacco in order to provide tobacco taste and satisfaction that replicates as much as possible what adult smokers expect.

Do HEETS tobacco sticks contain nicotine?

Yes, HEETS tobacco sticks contain nicotine, which is addictive.
Nicotine is naturally present in the tobacco used in HEETS. It is released in the vapor that is generated during the IQOS usage.

I cannot insert HEETS tobacco stick into the Holder

If you experience difficulty inserting HEETS tobacco stick, check if the tobacco portion from a previous HEETS tobacco sticks stuck in the Cap. Then, using the Pin (1) from the IQOS Cleaner, push the tobacco portion out as shown below (2 & 3).
